The problem is the load-time of my Emacs, now 221 seconds,

4 minutes of startup time is entirely unacceptable. And I think
you need
to identify what is causing this.
fontification at display time is standard, I believe.
It seems not, from what I see in the Messages buffer. I really
don't have
the impression of having fiddled with that, really.
You must be doing something strange [...] maybe forcing global
fontification for each file or so.
To repeat myself, no to that question. But ispell and flyspell are
called
for Org files. Maybe there are interactions?
[Using org-agenda-text-search-extra-files] reduces my load time
from 221
seconds down to 92 seconds. Already a huge diff!
Still bad though. I am wondering what is causing the fontification
message.
I do not get this, so it must be something in your setup. You
should try to
find out when this is happening and why.
You've seen, from my reply to Matt, why my *Messages* buffer is more
verbose
than yours. It's on purpose, just to be able to figure out more
easily what's
going on. Though, I don't have yet...
Also, you might consider to remove (org-agenda-list) from .emacs. I
think it
is pretty much always a bad idea to put a command like this into your
startup. Just make it a habit to call it early after starting Emacs.
Honestly, that would not change that much. Having to wait 92 seconds
at
startup, or a long time just a few minutes later has the same impact
for me.
And: don't try to make me stop using Org ;-))
:-)
The reason why I am suggesting to remove this command is more that it
make
emacs more usable for command line usage etc.
Furthermore, you are adding quite a bit to font-lock, but I don't see
why it should be so slow.
My Emacs starts up in 4 seconds at most. When I create an agenda, I
am talking 1 second to maybe 2.
I have about 10 files contributing to the agenda.

It also seems to me you some of the extra packages might be activated
several times in each file. One possible reason could be that you
have put
the code to turn them on into several hooks like text-mode-hook,
outline-mode-hook, and org-mode-hook. Turning on org-mode will
first run
text-mode-hook, then outline-mode-hook, then org-mode-hook .....
Maybe you
are also calling font-lock-fontify-buffer explicitly in one of your
hooks?
The only fontification customs that I do are here:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

The goal is to highlight words such as FIXME, WARNING, XXX, TODO in
as many
files as possible.
For Org, a small custom (of the custom) is done in order not to
catch all TODO
words: the TODO words in headlines (i.e., preceded by `* ') are *not*
highlighted.
They are well highlighted when found in other portions of (normal)
text.
Other custom:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; highlight columns 78 to 80 in some modes
(when (try-require 'column-marker)
(dolist (hook '(emacs-lisp-mode-hook
cperl-mode-hook
shell-mode-hook
text-mode-hook
change-log-mode-hook
makefile-mode-hook
message-mode-hook
texinfo-mode-hook))
(add-hook hook (lambda ()
(interactive)
(column-marker-1 78)
(column-marker-2 79)
(column-marker-3 80))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
for getting markers in columns 78 to 80, showing me I'm good for a
`M-q'...
I've done multiple tests, now:
- with none of the 2 above sets of customs
- with the 1st custom disabled, and the column-marker one enabled
- with both enabled
Times observed (in seconds):
| | no highlight | column marker only | all highlights |
|------+--------------+--------------------+----------------|
| | 63 | 82 | 91 |
| | 65 | 84 | 96 |
| | 76 | 100 | 130 |
|------+--------------+--------------------+----------------|
| mean | 68 | 89 | 106 |
(note that times are really not that stable, while I always launched
Emacs in
the same conditions, without doing anything else during that time!)
So, the above 2 sets of customs have a real impact on the load time.
But I'm still unsure how I have to change all of the above snippets
of code,
in order to keep the same functionality, but without the time delays
when
Emacs starts up...
Hope some of this helps. If not, let me see you full configuration
- maybe I
can spot something else.
My .emacs file is there:
http://www.mygooglest.com/sva/emacs-init-sva.el
Though it's well documented, it's not a tiny one... But very well
structured,
so quite easy to find stuff related to each other.
I'm always interested by any comment...
Best regards,
Seb
